Characteristics

Paeonia ‘Majesty’s Cup’ opens early with soft yellow, single-form blooms that offer clarity and control from the first cut of the season. The petals curve outward in a neat, cup-like formation, giving the bloom a composed silhouette that stays upright even in cool spring winds. With no side buds and high productivity, this hybrid focuses all its energy on producing one clean, symmetrical flower per stem. In field rows, it creates a consistent rhythm — soft yellow heads spaced evenly, with minimal variation between plants.

Origin MAJESTY’S CUP Peony

Introduced in 2017, ‘Majesty’s Cup’ was bred for growers who value structure over spectacle. Its single flower form was chosen for efficiency, and its pale yellow tone adds distinction without overwhelming neighbouring varieties. The hybrid build ensures fast emergence and early bloom timing, while maintaining colour stability and form integrity under variable spring conditions. Its name suits its stance: elevated, compact, and quietly regal.

HYBRID

As a hybrid, ‘Majesty’s Cup’ offers direct, reliable flowering without the unpredictability of side buds. Each stem produces a single, market-ready bloom with minimal input — ideal for growers managing early schedules or cool-climate rotations. The single flower type dries quickly after rain, opens evenly, and holds well in both field and vase. Its light colour makes it a transitional tool for early yellow schemes or soft spring palettes.
